Reliable Pet Companion

Pet care experience

My best friend's dog adores me and always rushes to greet me when I come by to visit, especially when I'm taking care of her when she's home alone for the weekend. She knows, as all dogs do, that I grew up with dogs in the family. Not just pets, but family. They need just as much care (sometimes more) than our human friends. I look forward to meeting some new four legged friends who are just itching to get outside and for some well needed exercise. I'm also great company for those furry friends who just need someone to come by and make sure they're doing okay while their favorite humans are away. I hope also to perhaps become one of their new favorite humans.

James was great with Mia! He gave her a quick drink of water, as I requested, before talking her for a nice walk and sent me a couple photos along the way! This was the first time I've left my dog with someone other than immediate family and I would definitely use James again.

James came through on short notice and could not have been more helpful. He sent me reports with photos so that I was always reassured that my little guy had the care he needed. I was really lucky to have James care for my dog!

James has watched my two dogs on numerous occasions, and I highly recommend him! He is dependable, responsible, and takes great care of my pups. He's a great communicator, and kept me up to date on their walks!

James is so awesome!!!! He has been watching my dog Pepper every time I've been out of town for the 2 last year. James has dog walked/house sat for me many many times in the past and my pup Pepper is a very big fan. James is reliable and wonderful, and while his schedule is a bit flexible (sometimes he cannot do early mornings) he really is willing to go above and beyond to work out a schedule that works best for Pepper. Highly recommended!

Information James J. would like to know about your pet

I like to know their feeding schedule and how much they are typically given at mealtimes.

A typical day

I've been living in Pittsburgh for 10 years now and have discovered so many great places to go on walks. The dog parks in both Lawrenceville and Squirrel Hill are both favorites. If they're an active dog I love tiring them out with a good game of fetch or tug of war. If they're a quiet dog then perhaps somewhere quiet in the sun.
